From its humble tabletop origins, the RPG has grown and evolved over the years into the most dominant and ambitious game genre, boasting a catalog as critically acclaimed as it is diverse. Role-playing games have a long and fascinating history. Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queenĭragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars Although I’m sure this has been brought up many times by a multitude of reviewers, I want to voice my concerns and do hope that it doesn’t end up Pay 2 win.Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King The one single concern I have with the game personally is who it is being published by: My.com, the group behind Allods Online and Skyforge. It seems reminiscent of TERA for those of you that have played it, so if you enjoyed TERA’s combat, you’ll likely enjoy the combat in Revelation Online as well. Revelation Online also allows marriages between players for you lucky bastards out there that play with their girlfriend, boyfriend or spouse! Lastly, and most importantly, the combat seems nice and fast paced. The graphics for aren’t groundbreaking, but they are definitely pretty great, along with the open world you get to explore, what I’ve seen of the character creation. Revelation Online features battlegrounds, arenas (5v5, 10v10, 20v20), open world pvp, sieges and more for people that want to enjoy the PvP aspect of the game. Revelation Online boasts a large amount of unique dungeons completable on different difficulties (similar to World of Warcraft), along with solo dungeons for foreveraloners out there. Another key selling point is the fact that it gives players the option to fly, exploring the large open world without penalty, similar to what people believed Aion allowed you to do before being disappointed with its restrictions. Revelation Online has a huge open world, which is a key selling point for me personally, having heavily enjoyed open world games like the Elder Scrolls and World of Warcraft when I was younger. We have yet to try it out personally, but it is going into beta testing on November 3 2016, and we plan on being one of the first players on the server. I’m sure this is a HUGE SURPRISE for all of you, but if you haven’t already guessed it by now, then coming in at number 1 is Revelation Online. Most MMORPGs released nowadays tend to be either Chinese or South Korean, so it’s nice seeing another Anime inspired MMORPG come out! Graphically speaking, Soul Worker Online isn’t the most amazing looking MMORPG in our list, however, it does have a very “Anime” feel to it which is something lacking in todays MMO scene. Unlike most of the games in this list, Soul Worker Online unfortunately does not offer you much in the vein of character creation, however, it does offer quite a few unique outfits that are obtainable through dungeons. Some people may be turned away by this, as I’ve personally seen it happen before with games like TERA, but for most of you it shouldn’t really be a problem. Soul Worker Online features multiple different classes to choose from, with the exception of each class being gender locked.

Another game taking inspiration from Vindictus, Soul Worker Online sports over 100 unique dungeons to battle through with friends in fast paced action based combat. Crowfall’s combat isn’t anything great nor are its cell shaded graphics, but they definitely feel high enough quality to not detract from the overall game.Īt number 7 we have the upcoming MMORPG Soul Worker Online. This should help keep the game feeling alive, as the world will likely be constantly changing. Each world has their own unique campaign that plays out through the worlds life.

When this happens, players need to find a new world to move on to.

After a certain amount of time passes, Winter approaches and the world you’ve been inhabiting begins to die. Also unlike other MMORPGs, Crowfall’s world dies. Instead, you’re instantly thrown right into endgame where you’re given the option to literally do anything you feel like doing. Unlike most MMORPGs you don’t start at level 1, grind, or do quests. The team behind Crowfall raised over $1.7 million dollars for its upcoming Game of Thrones inspired epic, wherein you are required to join a faction and fight for control over the land. At number 9 we have the crowdfunded MMORPG Crowfall.
